Summary at a Glance

THERE are plenty of videos on the internet of lucky people pulling back their grubby old carpets to reveal jaw-dropping parquet or tiles underneath.

To her shock, the results came back confirming that the tiles contained 10% asbestos, which left Holli double bagging and disposing of the lot.

Instead of the dreamy antique flooring she'd been hoping for, Holli revealed some mysterious dark tiling, which had been chipped to reveal a strange white, powdery centre.

The horrified homeowner claimed she'd stumbled upon "asbestos tiles," a mineral that can have seriously negative consequences on your health.

In the video, she can be seen pulling back her old, red carpets to see what lay underneath.
